There's no shortage of end-of-season sales and markets in Austin this month, and as usual, Le Garage Sale is leading the pack for major discounts. The twice-a-year shopping event is back at the Palmer Events Center on August 23-24 for a jam-packed weekend of shopping, DJ sets, and giveaways. And there are some new brands in tow at this season's inventory clear-out.
Shoppers can expect to find more than 100 Texas brands, online shops, and independent boutiques offering deeply-discounted fashion, beauty, and home goods. Price cuts sometimes even reach 90 percent.
For frequent shoppers who’ve made a tradition of attending Le Garage Sale, there will be many recognizable vendors. But shoppers will get a chance this sale to find some new go-tos scattered among the more familiar rows. Here are nine new-to-the-sale brands to have on your radar.
Art From the Streets
This nonprofit creates a safe space for Austin’s unhoused community and at-risk artists, who can create and promote their art through its artist residency programs, free studio time, and art shows throughout the community. Artists receive 95 percent of sales from their original artwork at community shows, and 60 percent of the final price from online sales, which includes art prints and merchandise like tote bags, t-shirts, puzzles, and more.
Mi Luz Jewelry
Shoppers looking to add a pop of color to their jewelry collection might want to swing by the Mi Luz booth. The local jewelry line consists of handcrafted necklaces, earrings, and bracelets made with colorful gemstones and beads, plus playful charms and pendants.
